Obama, you did not think the Taliban were terrorists either.
Here is your big project in Afghanistan today!
Isis is NOT a traditional military opponent and NOT a state. As soon as you field an army they will melt into the background. You will NEVER get a straight up fight from them unless it is on their terms. Just because you control some land does not make you a state.

“Isis is NOT a traditional military opponent and NOT a state. As soon as you field an army they will melt into the background. You will NEVER get a straight up fight from them unless it is on their terms. Just because you control some land does not make you a state.

And exactly what is your point?
My point is that Obama does not recognize a terrorist when he sees one.
You are defending someone who is trying to destroy this country?
And what is the difference between ISIS, which are just fundamentalists Muslims, and the Japanese in WWII, which were fundamentalist Nationalists that were almost invisible for years in the islands in the Far East during WWII?
What do you do to this type of opponent? You exterminate them at the source. Westerners have the power to destroy Islam, if they have the will.
Allah which does not exist cannot save them, but a very merciful God of Abraham can, perhaps. He might have other ideas, though.
Who is telling Obama to bring all the refugees to this country? Why is he going to flood this country with more refugees?>>>
it is his plan for re-election in 2016. create chaos. murder the republican winner/primary/national election. then buy the electors.
January 20th, 2017. Hopefully.
I suppose it's good to ask, but we both know the answer is 'no'.
Have you read the Koran?
Short version: To establish a caliphate, they need to control territory. Ergo, denying them control of territory invalidates their claim to be a budding caliphate per their own doctrines.
/Know thy enemy...
The accepted meaning of ISIS is the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. To Obama it's the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. This is a big distinction. The levant is a broad historicl region that includes Jordan, Lebanon, and Israel in addition to Syria. Basically all the Middle Eastern nations on the Mediterranean east of Egypt. And as such he is giving ISIS a much larger claim to territory. Now the question is, does ISIS/ISIL actually claim the entire Levant or is Obama giving that to them?
I beleive I have heard that the real stated goal is that ISIS wants the entire Levant and their goal was initially translated as just Syria, probably because the concept of the Levant is sort of archaic and not well understood in the USA these days.
So technically I think Obama is right, they consider themselves ISIL and not (merely) ISIS. It indicates they are more ambitious then just ISIS would imply.
Of course were I President I would not honor their desire for the entire Levant region by recognizing it in their name. In fact I would call them ISH, the Islamic State of Hell. And I'd help them claim that territory that rightly belongs to them.
“And exactly what is your point?”
The point was that the fundamental assertions of the author are wrong, for the reasons I stated.
My point is that Obama does not recognize a terrorist when he sees one.”
True. He is an @SS and hates the US.
“You are defending someone who is trying to destroy this country?”
How do you possibly come to that conclusion? Its idiotic. Obozo is a defender of Isis and looks for excuses to apologize for them. He loves Islam. But his description of their organization isnt wrong just because he said it.
“And what is the difference between ISIS, which are just fundamentalists Muslims, and the Japanese in WWII, which were fundamentalist Nationalists that were almost invisible for years in the islands in the Far East during WWII?”
The Japs were a conventional enemy and were fighting a conventional war. They were a real state and had a government with fixed locations. Isis is a fluid band of terrorists who transiently hold land are not a real government. You cant fight them the same way we fought the Japanese. The Iraqis tried to fight us using conventional warfare in Desert Storm. They were quickly destroyed. When we went back to fight gulf war II the Iraqi army had learned their lesson and disappeared into the population. Isis will do the same.
“What do you do to this type of opponent? You exterminate them at the source. Westerners have the power to destroy Islam, if they have the will.”
Agreed. The problem is WILL. We dont have it.
Obama is still in office because RINO’s kept him there. Thank you RINO’s.
The Romans underestimated their enemies, the barbarians, and we know how that turned out for them
Not soon enough.
Ryan?
No better than this jive ass punk obammy.
Doesn’t Nobama say ISIL? ISIS means nothing to him so of course ISIS is not a terrorist organization.
Whats going on in DC is definitely science fiction.
